which Figure 1 is a plan view of a portion of scissors embodying my invention, the scissors being open. v.

The blade 2 has a laterally extending projection 5 and to this is pivoted a disc 6 which is fiXed'to the screw 4 and the screw 4 turns in the projection 5 as indicated in Figure 3. The disc 6 is fixed to the laterally extending screw 7, as shown, and to this is securedthe blade 3 which has a screw threaded opening to receive the screw 7 and which is not tight on the screw 7 but can turn a little so that the cutting edge 8 of theblade 3 will naturally and instinctively be cutting in proper relation with the cutting'edge 9 of the blade 2 of the scissors when used in the conventional manner.

sembled by securing the parts 6 and 3 together by means of thescrew 7 and thereafter connecting the blades 2 and 3-by means of the screw 4;.
